Hermes:
Well the boy said Spring was on the way

Orpheus:
Any day!

Hermes:
But it seemed like this year she was late

Orpheus:
Just wait!

Hermes:
It's a long way from the underworld
And her train had been delayed
By her husband, Mister Hades
Who we'll get to down the line
'Cause he does not care for the open air
Or the glare of the sunshine

Now when you see that train a comin'
She's brighter than the sun
Shield your eyes now, brother
Here she comes!

Persephone:
Well it's like he said I'm an outdoor girl

Company:
Livin' it, livin' it up

Persephone:
Married to the king of the underworld

Company:
Livin' it up on top

Persephone:
Trying to enjoy myself

Company:
Livin' it, livin' it up

Persephone:
Six months out of every twelve

Company:
Livin' it up on top

Persephone:
When the sun is high, brother, so am I
Drinking dandelion wine
Brother, I'm as free as a honeybee
In a summertime frame of mind
When my man comes around
Oh I know he's gonna bring me down
But for I'm livin' it

Chorus:
How are you livin' it?

Persephone:
Livin' it, livin' it up
Brother right here I'm livin' it

Chorus:
Where are you livin' it?

Persephone:
Livin' it up on top

Orpheus:
Why would a man of his own free will

Hermes:
He's talkin' bout your man

Orpheus:
Go to work all day in the mine and the mill?

Persephone:
You think I give a damn?

Orpheus:
Why would he trade the sunshine

Persephone:
Tell 'em how it is, brother

Orpheus:
For a couple of nickels and dimes
Up on top a man can breathe while he's

Company:
Livin' it, livin' it up

Orpheus:
Picking fruit in the orchard trees

Company:
Livin' it up on top

Orpheus:
No one here is a millionaire but we're

Company:
Livin' it, livin' it up

Orpheus:
What we have we have to share

Company:
Livin' it up on top

Orpheus:
Brother, give me a lyre and a campfire
And an open field at night
Give me the sky that you can't buy
Or sell at any price
And I'll give you a song for free
'Cause that's how life oughta be
So that's how we're livin' it

Chorus:
How are we livin' it?

Orpheus:
Livin' it, livin' it up
Brother, right here we're livin' it

Chorus:
Where are we livin' it?

Orpheus:
Livin' it up on top

Hermes:
And that is how the summer went

Persephone:
Oh, I'm just getting started!

Hermes:
The grapes got heavy on the vine

Persephone:
Who says times are hard?

Hermes:
And the workers brought the harvest in

Persephone
Anybody want a drink?

Hermes:
And turned it into wine

Dance Break

Persephone:
Up on top we ain't got much, but we're

Company:
Livin' it, livin' it up

Persephone:
Just enough to fill our cups

Company:
Livin' it up on top

Persephone:
Brother, pass that bottle around 'cause we're

Company:
Livin' it, livin' it up

Persephone:
Let the poet bless this round!

Orpheus:
To the patroness of all of this, Persephone!

Hermes:
Hear, hear!

Orpheus:
To the sunshine and the fruit of the vine
She gives us every year
Asking nothing in return
Except that we should live and learn to live
As brothers in this life
And to trust she will provide

And if no one takes too much
There will always be enough
She will always fill our cups
And we'll always raise them up

To the world we dream about
And the one we live in now

'Cause right now we're livin' it

Chorus:
How are we livin' it?

Orpheus:
Livin' it, livin' it up
Brother, right here we're livin' it

Chorus:
Where are we livin' it?

Orpheus:
Listen here, I'll tell you where we're livin' it:
Up on top

Chorus:
Up on top

Orpheus:
Livin' it up and we ain't gonna stop
Livin' it, livin' it

Company:
Livin' it, livin' it
Livin' it up on top!
